Veggie Calzones
Lately I've been making calzones. They are a real versatile "hot sandwich" too since they require small-scale amounts of filling...they are a proficient means to us whatsoever leftovers on hand. Hubby loves big meat sandwiches, hence I've made them amongst leftover BBQ chicken, steak & cheese, ham & cheese, crisp bacon & cheese too yes, pizza goodies.
Personally, I similar my calzones stuffed to the brim amongst veggies too a niggling pizza sauce & cheese. I bring found, through case too error, that y'all bring to saute your veggies until tender hence drain them good on a newspaper towel. If y'all don't, y'all volition larn a soggy-bottom crust on your sandwich. Any veggies volition work. Roasted veggies are excellent, hence are grilled veggies. Tonight I was lazy, hence I only sauteed around broccoli, mushrooms, garlic, light-green onions too kidney beans, but usually, the to a greater extent than veggie diversity the better.(CLICK HERE) too jazz it upwards amongst 1/2 teaspoon dark pepper, 1 teaspoon onion pulverisation too 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder(add seasonings when y'all add together the liquid inward the recipe).
Normally, I would rather cutting my arm off than demonstrate anyone my oven, but I wanted y'all to run across MY surreptitious for getting a pizzeria mode pizza crust. It doesn't await similar anything special, but it is really the best means to develop pizza at home.
My married adult man came upwards amongst this regard near 10 years agone when I was complaining that my pizza rock wasn't working the means I wanted it to (I wanted a crispy crust amongst prissy pillowy edges). He cutting a 1/4" thick slice of steel (to gibe my oven) too I seasoned it similar a cast Fe frying pan. After y'all bring seasoned it, y'all never grease it or launder it again, only wipe it off.....nothing sticks to it.
I preheat my oven (and the steel sheet) to 450 degrees too purpose cornmeal on my pizza peal hence that the prepared pizza (or calzone) volition slide off straight onto this canvas of hot steel (no pan). Bake for 8 minutes, hence switch the oestrus to broil too (watching it carefully) allow it broil for near two to a greater extent than minutes or until it is the color y'all want. It plant great...no to a greater extent than doughy "steamed" crusts.
For calzones, y'all volition postulate a ball of yeast dough near the size of a hardball. Roll it out to a prissy thin circle. Place a mound of sauteed, too drained, veggies on 1 side of the circle too survive past times them amongst 1/4 loving cup of pizza sauce (CLICK HERE FOR MY PIZZA SAUCE) too a serious paw total of grated mozzarella cheese. Fold the "empty" side of the calzone over the filling too pinch the edges together. Once pinched together, ringlet the pinched dough border dorsum onto itself to shape a real tight seal. Using scissors, snip several vent holes inward the survive past times of the calzone. Bake at 450 for 8-10 minutes or until prissy too golden. Just every bit presently every bit they come upwards out of the oven, brush them amongst butter too sprinkle amongst parmesan too coarse salt.
